Zeltsman Marimba Festival Faculty Concert featuring jazz vibraphonist Christos Rafalides with Petros Klampanis, double bass. (Both are from Greece, and now live in New York City.) Opening set: Music of Zappa, Westlake & Rzewski—including Arcata local and HSU professor Eugene Novotney on steel pan. This will be a tremendously fun evening for jazz lovers with a taste for the eclectic.

This concert is presented as part of the Zeltsman Marimba Festival 2013 Concert Series: eight programs of marimba music featuring some of the world’s top keyboard percussion artists in Arcata, California. The annual marimba festival takes place in a different location each year. This summer’s festival, based at Humboldt State University, brings together faculty and participants from 13 states and 10 countries to perform and collaborate.
